His Cross must be ours...



O Crux, ave spes unica!
Hail, O Cross, our only hope!

His Cross must be our Cross. We all fit onto it. The same nails fasten us to the tree of life, the same thorns crown us, the same lance pierces our heart. And when we have touched all the peaks and arrive finally upon the divine Calvary and consent to be lifted on the Cross and immolate ourselves with the holy victim in His unique sacrifice, our souls, trembling with pain and happiness, find in the arms of the Cross the supreme secret of human life, the secret of perfect joy. ~Most Rev. Luis M. Martinez, The Sanctifier
Dear Jesus,
our Crucified Lord and Savior,
may Your cross be our only cross.
Amen.
